If December is the proverbial light at the end of the tunnel, November tends to see many of us running out of gas just after turning the final corner.
When daydreaming of pow-dery white sands and warm and invit-ing waters, Zanzibar is no doubt one of the exotic destinations that spring to mind, with such an abundance of Islands, Hotels and Safari experiences we decided to give you a taste of it all.
A quick read through our cover feature on the exquisite offering will no doubt reveal why it has come to be known as an oasis for paradise seekers, creative corporates, romantics and fun-loving families alike. While the Seychelles, an-other Indian Ocean favourite, offers a host of five-star lodges, resorts and vil-las the featured Desroches Island is our favoured destination feature thanks to its unique, comprehensive and world-class location, infrastructures and of-ferings.
Feel like heading to the bush but not yet sure which of the myriad reserves would best suit your needs? Our Des-tination Downtime guides you through Safari’s in Tanzania while our Featured Destinations cover Kenya, Botswana and South Africa. Our Bush Safari fea-ture have something for everyone – from nature lovers to wellness seekers and families simply looking for a bit of uninterrupted quality time.
If it’s the wine-lands that really tick-les your fancy, you may enjoy a visit to
one of our top Cape countryside desti-nations. An old favourite of ours, Grand Dédale Country House provides verita-bly palatial accommodation in the heart of South Africa’s food and wine capital.
For those whose year-end breaks are not complete without a bit of culinary indulgence, we present unique wine-lands and seaside food and wine expe-riences on offer from now until the end of the year.
Chin up – we’re almost there!
